Question

what are the organisms called that exist in a region due to natural processes and do not disrupt the biodiversity of the area?
○ foreign species
○ introduced species
○ invasive species
○ native species

Explanation:

• Foreign species: This term is not standard for organisms in a region via natural processes; it implies non - native, often with human - related introduction connotations.
• Introduced species: These are species brought into a region by human activities, not natural processes.
• Invasive species: These are non - native species that disrupt the local ecosystem and biodiversity.
• Native species: Native species are organisms that have evolved or arrived in a region through natural processes (like natural dispersal over time) and are well - adapted to the local environment, not disrupting the local biodiversity.

Answer:

D. Native species
